Bot or abscess?

[Charley Chuckles]

Just saw Mia again and it looks more like a bot is getting ready to exit. I saw more of a defined, round exit hole. So I think I will continue the Clavamox for a few more days and see if bot exits before going forward with hands-on intervention.

Looks blackish like a bot, if it is it should leave on it's own. They have barbs they attach so would be hard to remove now. However I know Patti did that with her Susie one year. Have to unscrew counterclockwise.
I wouldn't be that brave😲
Patti would have to give you instructions 👍

The very first photo I saw you post sure looked like the area had the typical grape shape bots take.
Hair loss around around the area is typical of bot infestation.

Day 7 of Clavamox and probiotics. Mia is such a good girl, she has taken her med 2x/day for 7 days without missing a dose. The infection look gone, it is more recognizable as a normal nasty bot. I hope it pops out soon.

Yea, it appears to be a bot but it also seemed infected, probably due to Mia's frequent and aggressive scratching of the area.
